Major Component - RSS Feeds
The Internet…
The Pros:Individual access to a world of informationQuick communicationA wealth of knowledge somewhere out there…
The Cons:How do you sort and filter a “world of information”Endless searching for meager or low quality resultsLabour intensive… (you mean I have to find it??)Suitability and Authenticity
With the RSS (Rich Site Summary) technology, the web became a place where information could be pushed to surfers…
Users don’t have to go to it, it comes to them.And best of all…. We can control what we get!
